What are we studying?

  • Homework: Week of May 20th - Our Student Led Conferences will be May 22nd at 8:30 am. Please let me know if an adult cannot be here for your child so I can make sure to have another adult from our building available. We will decorate our BLUE shirts on Friday for Third Grade Field Games on Tuesday (last day of school). Look for ice cream permission slip in Tuesday folders.
  • Writing- We are busy choosing pieces for our showcase portfolios and reflecting on our growth in third grade.
  • Reading - Mrs. Forseth is giving us free time to do extended reading into one of the genres we have studied in depth this year.
  • MATH- We've mastered Third Grade content, so Mrs. Forseth is giving us a peek into what we will learn next year in fourth grade!

Do Adults Write?

Quick! - ask an adult at home about his or her writing! Respond to this post telling me 1. One thing your adult has to write, 2. Who is your adult's audience and 3. What is your adult's purpose.

Here is my example:

My adult is Mr. F.
1. He has to write equipment proposals for work.
2. His audience is a group of adults who are in charge of all of the money at his work.
3. His purpose for writing is to persuade those adults to buy him the equipment he needs.
